Abstract

PURPOSE:To uniformly cool a grooved roller in the longitudinal direction by arranging a passage for coolant passage in each area dividing the inside of a base metal of the grooved roller in the center in the longitudinal direction. CONSTITUTION:In a base metal 42, a cylindrical flow passage component member 51 is fitted in each of a pair of left and right areas divided by cylindrical bodies 50, 50 and a central wall 40a. On the outer circumference of each passage component member 51, a groove 60 is formed. Coolant is fed from a coolant supply port 45a in each end of the base metal 42 to the groove 60. Then, the coolant reaches the central wall 40a once through a linear groove 60a on the passage component member 51 outer circumference, and subsequently, the coolant reaches a coolant discharge port 45b via a meandering groove 60b on the passage component member 51 outer circumference so as to be discharged from the coolant discharge port 45b. During this process, a core metal part 44 is cooled by means of the coolant, and as a result, a sleeve is cooled down. In this way, a heat absorbing rate in the longitudinal direction of the grooved roller can be unified.

Specifically, it relates to a structure of a groove roller around which a cutting wire is wound.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a wire saw has been used to cut a workpiece to produce a wafer. This wire saw presses a work against a row of wires having a constant pitch parallel to each other, and causes a cutting wire to perform a combined operation of reciprocating motion and feeding motion in the linear direction, and a machining liquid containing abrasive grains between the work and the wire. Is supplied, the work is cut by the lapping action to produce a wafer.

According to this wire saw, the cutting speed for cutting the work is slower than that for cutting by the inner peripheral blade, but it has a feature that a large number of wafers can be cut at the same time. By the way, according to the wire saw, the time required for one cutting is about 6 hours for a silicon single crystal having a diameter of 125 mm, for example, but about 200 wafers can be cut at one time.

In the wire saw, frictional heat is generated between the wire and the work during cutting, and frictional heat is generated in the bearing portion of the groove roller around which the cutting wire is wound. These heats change the temperature of the groove roller during cutting and change the pitch of the wire grooves engraved on the surface of the groove roller. When the pitch of the wire grooves changes, the pitch of the wire rows changes during cutting, causing undulations on the surface of the cut wafer.

In order to solve such a problem, a rolling device as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 62-251063 has been conventionally considered. The groove roller used in this rolling device introduces cooling oil from one end side to the hollow part (which constitutes an oil passage) provided in the base metal and discharges the cooling oil from the other end side. Is configured to let.

That is, since the cooling oil supplied from the oil supply port to the hollow portion absorbs heat and goes to the oil discharge port, the temperature rises as it goes from the oil supply port to the oil discharge port, and the heat absorption rate of the cooling oil (heat absorption amount). ) Will be reduced. The difference in the amount of heat absorption causes a temperature gradient along the longitudinal direction of the groove roller, which changes the pitch of the wire grooves formed on the surface of the sleeve of the groove roller. Such a tendency becomes more remarkable as the diameter and length of the work become larger, as in the case of a silicon single crystal ingot. By the way, in the conventional wire saw, the diameter is 1
It was only necessary to cut a work piece of 50 mm and a length of 300 mm, but recently, a diameter of 200 mm and a length of 800 mm
It is necessary to cut a large work of ~ 1000 mm.

According to the above-mentioned means, the cooling medium is supplied from each end of the base of the groove roller, each flow is turned back near the center, and is discharged from each end. Therefore, the cooling medium supplied from each end of the base metal cools only the half of the groove roller, which is different from the conventional structure in which the cooling medium is supplied from one end and discharged from the other end. The temperature difference of the cooling medium between each end of the roller and the vicinity of the center becomes small. As a result, the heat absorption coefficient of the cooling medium at each end of the groove roller and in the vicinity of the center of the groove roller becomes substantially uniform, and the groove roller is cooled uniformly in the longitudinal direction.
